The Inner Life

THE HERALD OF THE NEW AGE | JUNE 1934

The two strong ugly looking men that came and seized you and were trying to kidnap you, but from whom you finally freed yourself, were evidently two strong negative thoughts or beliefs that still had hold of you but from which you were trying to free yourself. The fact that one could still pull you to the door by the tip of your finger is interesting, in that you were still holding on to that particular thought—just a little. But you should be thankful that you were freed from them. Perhaps by this time you know what they were. The room full of friends you found around you after they were frightened away were merely the friendly thoughts and beliefs with which you had filled your mind through a study of the truths we have been sending you, and which of course helped to scare the kidnappers away.

I SAT meditating upon the following: “Must man carry his life as a weight? Life should carry him as a bird carries its wings.” As I meditated I was conscious of following some object that kept flying ahead of me and it seemed to be trying to attract my attention. It came to me that perhaps this meant something and I had better investigate it. So I looked closer at the object and saw it was a store with something in its mouth. I followed and came closer to it, and could see it was carrying a baby. The moment I recognized this the stork circled over my head and flew down straight into my body and into my heart. I was filled with a great force that expanded until I felt as though my body would burst. I began to cry and was soon relieved.

I continued to sit still, wondering what it all meant, and found myself looking into a round black hole about three inches in diameter. I fascinated me and I kept studying it and discovered it had life and intelligence. Then I asked my Indwelling Presence what it meant, and I knew it was a pupil of a large eye. A huge ear then appeared and I felt huge hands on mine. Then I saw a huge heart; next a huge brain came into view. A tiny ball of light entered the brain and bounced up and down against the top of the brain and along the nerves. Then a huge mouth and finally a nose appeared. Just then someone knocked and came into the room.

You do not know how happy we are at what has come to you, for there is no question from your vision that the Christ Child has been born within. We know that it is making you also very happy and that you are beginning to realize what it all means through the change that you feel within you.

We would judge from what you report that that huge eye, ear, mouth, brain and body that you saw and felt was but your being in that consciousness within as the Christ Child, sensing the big human self of you outside. The tiny ball of light that entered your brain and bounced up and down against the top of your brain, was the awakening of a Spiritual center there, and you will probably have some evidence of it soon.
